I have a small amount of yellowing and some distorted growth tips on a couple of my plants. The leaves seem to have a hard time opening, with some pleating and some holes. Is it likely that applying Garlic Barrier to the young growth could have caused this?
By the way, the Garlic Barrier seems to be working very well. I am just wondering if I could keep it away from the growth tips. thanks KathyT

I have applied G.B. excessively on new growth, never had any signs of problems. the G.B. web site says they have applied it without dilution and never burned a plant.

i burnt my plants a few weeks back with it, so yes, it can burn.

no problems with it here. Maybe you should dilute it a little to be safe?

I've been spraying it on in the evening, on leaves about 5" and larger. A couple of leaves look burnt somewhat...don't know if it's from Garlic Barrier though. I'm not seeing many cuke beetles anymore. If this stuff keeps working, it's an awesome find!

I am having good luck just sprinkling garlic powder around my plants. Last year I had clouds of cuke beetles, this year only a couple. I can get it at WalMart for $0.50 a bottle.
